I would like to thank all of the participants who submitted a photo. You made it very difficult to select first place as they are all winners.

Being a first time judge I have learned that three weeks is too long and there should be no rules to restrict when photos were taken. That being said I had participants who said they had great photos but were over the time limit while other participants submitted photos over 1 year old or no exif data.

Number 10 Green Umbrella by CGS11: Unique, like the reflection of the wasp. Looks more like a skirt than an umbrella

Number 9 Green Transport by Obsydian: Sometimes mundane subjects make great photos.

Number 8 Stacked Green by R Dunlop: Nicely done, like that you took the initiative of taking out your camera and trying something new.

Number 7 Green Winter Grass by Esayjay: Good effort but always works better when you get a reflection in the droplet.

Number 6 Does it get any greener than this by Deepak Kaw: Very good photo dipalying Bokeh,dof, and details. Well done. Would darken the one area under the leaf.

Number 5 Green Buds Spring by Capt Bart: Great photo, That lens is number one on my list.
